Allianz Commercial Commentary

  • In 2022, gross premium written (GPW) of AGCS grew year-on-year by €1.683 billion (18%) to €11.169 billion (2021: €9.486 billion), driven by a higher renewals base, higher rates on renewals (11% on average incl. adjustment of terms and conditions), new business as well as favorable foreign exchange effects. Most lines of business achieved business growth, especially Property, Financial Lines, Energy & Construction and MidCorporate.
  • The combined ratio for 2022 is 2.5%-p better than prior year and stands at 94.9% (2021: 97.5%). This improvement is driven by a favorable contribution from both expense ratio and current accident year loss ratio across all loss segments due to portfolio improvements and lower claims activity for natural catastrophes. The excellent underwriting performance allowed for an appropriate build-up of reserves, mainly to address inflationary risks.
  • The operating profit for 2022 of €655 million (2021: €366 million) is €289 million better than prior year due to both better underwriting performance and investment result.

IMI Team

We believe in having an open dialogue with you and Marsh to find the right solution for your every need. We commit to continue to build our robust and transparent tripartite relationship and will deliver on our promise.

Your dedicated Key Account Manager (KAM), Hajar Bousfiha, will ensure effective service delivery to IMI via a single point of access to Allianz resources. She will ensure an integrated approach, from underwriting to multinational to claims to risk engineering.

Hajar will oversee the following:

  • Coordination of the Allianz service via the KAM but in close liaison with all of the client team – this provides a structured approach to ensuring client feedback which helps ensure rapid responses to any issues which may arise
  • Monitoring all aspects of the Allianz service in respect of the client and taking action to resolve any issues without delay
  • Arranging account review meetings with a structured agenda to cover all aspects of the AGCS and IMI relationship, including mid-term review, pre-renewal and post-renewal reviews
  • Representing the client’s interests within Allianz to ensure that service improvements are made where necessary and delivering access to the wider resources of Allianz through one person – as and when required
  • The KAM is responsible for ensuring that they develop a close understanding of the client’s business environment
  • Liaison with client/broker and AGCS claims on any major losses

As stated below we would like to continue the regular engagement with IMI, both formally and non-formally. We suggest we do the following:

  • We encourage quarterly stewardship meetings with IMI and Marsh.  In addition to standing items (for example – risk consulting, claims, etc.), we will provide updates on matters such as emerging risks, new solutions and support evolution. We would like to have at least two dedicated risk consulting stewardship meetings per year
  • Ad Hoc meetings - we will bring the relevant experts and respond in real time to urgent requests
  • C Suite level engagement - customer centricity is one of the key pillars underpinning the Allianz Groups
  • Regularly we invite our clients to meet with subject matter experts to learn about insurance and risk management developments, new products and other topics
  • Claims scenario testing is an opportunity to meet and discuss potential stress points to ensure the wording response is as expected.
  • Regular engagement on a non-formal basis too!

We would like to be a key market for IMI. We have a good understanding of your risk and we are in a good position to support you in the reviving the captive and increasingly using it. Looking forward, we can support you better manage your risks through the captive by introducing our ART capabilities. We encourage stewardship meetings to discuss our multinational delivery with IMI and Marsh. In addition to standing items (for example – multinational, risk consulting, claims, etc.), we will provide updates on matters such as emerging risks, ESG, and any the latest risk thought leadership to support the growth and evolution of IMI.

Milestone Slippage

For the implementation of any renewal program to ACGS, these Milestones are achievable but challenging. Any slippage in attaining of the early Milestones would produce a similar slippage in future Milestones

Fortnightly calls with post inception Stewardship meeting

Weekly calls with Marsh until the programme and up and running to discuss and address any outstanding matters. Post inception stewardship meeting to ensure IMI Plc is happy with overall service.

It is important to note that the target policy issuance date is Client Inception Date, however each of the parties should deliver all information on time and we have counted in some safeguard dates in the case of delays from client or broker.
